Before starting assembly
Before starting the assembly, remove each part from its bag and protection for a prior
inspection. Closely inspect the fuselage, wing panels, rudder, and stabilizer for
damage. If you find any damage or missing parts, contact the place of purchase.
If you find any wrinkles in the covering, use a heat gun or covering iron to remove
them. Use caution while working around areas where the covering material overlap to
prevent separating the covers.

RADIO SET UP
For a more realistic jet fying, more stable and easy in the wind, we recommend to
install the SebArt 3 axis gyro system stabilizer for EDF installation or in case of use
the P20 turbine is necessary the installation of the I-GIRO Power Box.
Flaps:
We recommend to use flaps down for starts and landings to make them shorter and
easier.
Activate the FLAP function in your radio.
For start use approx. 20° flaps down and mix 8% elevator down
For landing use approx. 50° full flap down and mix 20% elevator down
Control throws:
For the AILERON we recommend the following throws:
Use approx. 10% aileron differential (more up) for normal flight.
High rate: 30° left & right
Normal flight: D/R: 60% Expo: 10%
Snap, spin: D/R: 100% Expo: 40%
Start & landing: D/R: 100% Expo: 40%
For the ELEVATOR we recommend the following throws:
High rate: 35° up & down
Normal flight: D/R: 50% Expo: 40%
Snap, spin: D/R: 100% Expo: 80%
Start & landing: D/R: 100% Expo: 80%
For the RUDDER we recommend the following throws:
High rate: 35° left & right
Normal flight: D/R: 80% Expo: 20%
Snap, spin: D/R: 100% Expo: 60%
Start & landing: D/R: 100% Expo: 60%
Note: the Expo is (+) for JR systems, and (–) for Futaba systems.
Mixing:
We recommend the following mix (if you have a programmable computer radio):
Rudder →Elevator DOWN
full rudder to the right, the elevator have to go down (negative) approx. 4%
full rudder to the left, the elevator have to go down (negative) approx. 4%
Rudder →Ailerons
full rudder to the right, the ailerons have to go left approx. 7%
full rudder to the left, the ailerons have to go right approx. 7%
Recommended Center of Gravity
The recommended CG is 145mm behind the leading edge of wing.
Pre-flight
Never attempt to make full throttle dives! This model have to be flown like a full-
scale airplane. If the airframe goes too fast, such as in a high throttle dive, it may fail.
Throttle management is absolutely necessary.
Range test your radio
Before fly, be sure to range check your radio as manufacturer’s instruction
manual of you radio-system recommend.
Double-check all controls (aileron, flaps, elevator, rudder and throttle)
move in the correct direction.
Be sure that your motor battery pack is fully charged, as per the
instructions included with your batteries and that your radio is fully
charged as per its instructions.
Finally... have nice flights!
